Install Fixes from Empower or a Fix Image
Note: | In clustered environments, Software AG recommends that you install all required fixes on each node. |
1. In the Action list, select Fix Management and then select Install fixes from Empower or Install fixes from image.
2. For Product directory, specify the full path to the product installation directory.
3. Do one of the following:
If you are installing from... | Do this... |
Empower | Provide your Empower user name and Password. |
An image | For Image file name, specify the full path to the file from which to install. The path to the image file cannot include spaces. Image files have the extension .zip. |
4. Select Next.
If you are installing from Empower, the Update Manager tries to connect. If your company connects to the Internet through an HTTP or Socks proxy server, you must use that proxy server to install. The Update Manager gives you the option to specify the proxy server connection settings.
The Update Manager displays the fix selection tree. The tree lists the following:
The products in the specified product installation directory.
If you are installing from
Empower, the latest fixes that are available for the products.
If you are installing from an image, the fixes in the image.
Any fixes that are already installed on the products. The names of these fixes are followed by the word (Installed).
Any fixes that have already been installed on the products, but must be reinstalled to update product infrastructure or to apply to new instances that have been added to existing products (for example, to
Integration Server or
My webMethods Server). The names of these fixes are followed by the word (Reinstall). These fixes are preselected and cannot be unselected.
If the tree displays no fixes available for install, then no fixes are available for the products in the specified installation directory.
5. Select the fixes to install and then select Next. The Update Manager lists the fixes you selected. If there are other fixes that are related to and required by the fixes you selected, and products to which the fixes apply exist in the specified installation directory, the Update Manager lists those fixes as well.
Note: | If products to which related required fixes apply do not exist in the specified installation directory, the Update Manager will list those fixes at the end of the installation. |
6. When you are done reviewing the list, select Next.
7. Depending on the products you are working with, the Update Manager might ask for product connection values. The Update Manager needs the connection values to shut down and act on the indicated products.
Note: | If multiple instances of a product exist on the machine, make sure the connection values you supply identify the instance that is in the specified product installation directory. |
8. Select Next. The Update Manager installs the fixes, and then displays the installation complete panel.
If products for which there are related required fixes did not exist in the specified installation directory, the Update Manager lists the fixes now. You must install them on their products as soon as possible.
Important: | If you do not install the listed related required fixes, your products will not work properly together. |
9. Restart the products on which you installed fixes.
